Sorry took awhile to respond. Been sooooo busy. I am near newark-fremont-milpitas area. Anyone from thereabouts?

Also a side question, has anyone here been using Idemitsu premix for awhile and can comment on it? And hows passing smog after using it for awhile? Thanks!

Now that I have your attention. Im new here and would like to get to know the bay area rotary community better.

I just got my Axial flow eng short shifter today! does anyone mind helping me out installing it and a tune up on my 8? plugs, coils, RB air filter, tranny/diff oil. I have limited tools only a 32pc socket wrench. I do have a bunch of jacks and jack stands lol and plenty of driveway space.

I'm in milpitas BTW

welcome to the addiction.

I'd be available next monday or tuesday to help. Only thing you would need other then the socket set is the socket for the tranny and diff.

you just need the correct size socket for the tranny and diff... don't remember the size off the top of my head but check the DIY section they should have the sizes listed.
